Future work design research and practice: Towards an elaborated model of work design

Abstract: Developments in work design theory have not kept pace with the changes occurring in the organizational landscape. We propose a theoretical framework that specifies five categories of work design variables that span individual, group and organizational levels of analysis.

“…The significance of job design is well established in the HR literature with several researchers having proposed that job characteristics and job design have varying impacts on the levels of job satisfaction of employees (Crede, et al 2007;De Varo et al 2007;Parker et al 2001;Rabinowitz and Hall;1977;Sims, Sziagyi and Keller, 1976).
